When Charlie and I got married, I started working on the dishes from my childhood-yummy southern casseroles. Now Charlie grew up on a farm in Maryland and he was use to a meat and 3 vegetables on his plate, and none of them touched.  So when I served him those casseroles, he looked at the plate with its one squared-shaped serving and said, "What's this? What are you trying to do? Cook everything in one pan, Nan?" One Pan Nan was born. 

It's my mission to help you have more time around the table with the ones you love and less time cleaning up afterwards. One-pan cooking means one-pan cleanup!   I hope you enjoy these recipes-many have been collected through the years from family, friends, neighbors, roommates and some have come from my trial and error in the kitchen.  

Thanks for visiting!!
Nan
